Which TV should I choose?

I have a dilemma, I have been looking at tvs for the past couple of days and I has found some I like.
Does anyone have any experience with LG HDTVs, I found some good deals but I'm not sure on the quality/reliability?

Well the two I found are
Sony Bravia 32" 720p 60hz for $500

and

Sony bravia 32" 1080p 120hz for $750

Both of them seem like good tv's, especially the second one but being $200 more I am not sure.
It will just be going in my room so it's not gonna be a huge entertainment center tv so I don't know if
the extra $200 is worth the higher quality or if the quality is going to be very noticeable on a 32" tv from 5-6 feet away.

Looking at the reviews of the two they seem to be highly referred.
is anyone here an expert TV shopper? :D

Really being that small 120Hz and 1080p isn't needed and you will not see the difference. Yes on bigger sized TV's but not that size. So just save your self that extra money and get a PS3 now at $299 ;)

Haha we already have Braveheart and The Patriot on Bluray :P.
I plan on getting Advent Children on bluray though to test out the new tv :D.

And dam DPM thats a good price! The best deal I've seen is $300 for the 160GB Uncharted Bundle.
Those are used prices I'm guessing?

BTW: Can anyone give an opinion about LG's HDTVs?

I personally like Sony. Its really all brand name in the end with most of the panels coming from the same manufacture.

Yeah they are used prices but in good condition and working well. We even clean them.

Sony would be more expensive@ yunoko

@ advent...compare the specs and you'll see. you get more output/inputs, resolutions better, etc etc.
if you look at them side by side in the store you can even see a difference in the quality. Sony really hasn't been top 10 when it comes to tv's.
